Battle Born Clothing has made laser-engraved leather patches since 2020 on an OMTech 80-watt CO2 laser. We glue them to the cap with a heat process on a two-platen press, or sew them on request, and we aim to be the top leather patch hat maker in the USA.

## Per-cap price

| Quantity | Per cap |
|---|---|
| 1-23 | $8.00 |
| 24-47 | $7.50 |
| 48-71 | $7.00 |
| 72-95 | $6.50 |
| 96-119 | $6.00 |
| 120-143 | $5.50 |
| 144-167 | $5.00 |
| 168-191 | $4.50 |
| 192+ | $4.00 |

Sewn-on instead of glued: add $4–6 per cap. The stitch border is visible and some buyers prefer the look.

## Which caps take a patch

- Best: [Flexfit 180 Delta](/products/flexfit-180-delta/) (seamless front, patches up to the full panel)
- Good: [Flexfit 6277](/products/flexfit-6277/), [5001](/products/flexfit-5001/), [6210](/products/flexfit-6210/), [110F](/products/flexfit-110f/), [Richardson 511](/products/richardson-511/), [110](/products/richardson-110/), [112](/products/richardson-112/), [YP 6089M](/products/yp-classics-6089m/), [Zapped Cobra](/products/zapped-cobra/): keep glued patches under about 2.5 in wide across the seam, or choose sewn
- Not recommended: thin performance shells such as the 6297F and 6100NU

## Shapes, sizes and leather colors

Rectangles, rounded rectangles, circles, ovals, shields and custom outlines cut from your vector file. Typical sizes are 2 in to 3 in wide. Standard leather colors are shown on the proof; engraving burns the design darker into the hide, so high-contrast line art works best.

## Artwork

Vector art (AI, EPS, PDF, SVG) engraves cleanest. Fine lines under about 0.5 pt and solid fills larger than about 1 in square are the two things we will flag on the proof. There is no digitizing fee for patches.

## Questions
**Glued or sewn?** Glued is standard and holds through normal wear. sewn adds $4–6 per hat and a visible stitch border, and is the better choice for very large patches or thin shells.

**Can I combine a patch with embroidery?** Yes. A front patch with a side-hit or back embroidery is common. The embroidery placement is quoted per job plus digitizing.

**Is there a minimum for patch caps?** No hard minimum. The 12-23 tier is $8.00 per cap for the patch plus the blank.
